Lets's calculate LCM of 213,8199
3 | 213, 8199 |
71, 2733 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 71 x 2733 = 582129
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/582129
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2976/213,7402/8199 is 2/582129
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 213,8199 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,8199) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,8199) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(213,8199) = ( 213 × 8199 ) / 3
LCM(213,8199) = 1746387 / 3
LCM(213,8199) = 582129
